Default Transgaming Cedega

So I bought this neat little piece of software and have it installed/running. How do I actually install the game? It says to put the CD in the tray but nothing happens. Do I need to manually do something?

Transgaming is the company I think

Quote:
Electronic entertainment today is more pervasive than ever before and there are many platforms that consumers can play video games on. Whether it's the PC, Linux, Mac, Xbox, PlayStation, or other devices, each platform represents its own set of development challenges and costs when it comes to deploying video games. TransGaming Technologies develops unique and proprietary software portability engines that bridge the gap between these disparate gaming systems, allowing developers and publishers to develop content once but deploy on multiple platforms without the traditionally time consuming and arduous development cycles.

Yes, TransGaming is a company, while Cedega is one of their products. It was originally a fork of Wine, and its primary target is to implement DirectX for use in games. So all in all, it's like Wine, but better for running games.

I use Cedega on my box, too. It depends on the exact game how good it will run it. All in all, it does do a nice job when emulating Windows games.
